+ Kerberos over TCP
+
+Status of this Memo
+
+ This document is an Internet-Draft. Internet-Drafts are working
+ documents of the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF), its areas,
+ and its working groups. Note that other groups may also distribute
+ working documents as Internet-Drafts.
+
+ Internet-Drafts are draft documents valid for a maximum of six months
+ and may be updated, replaced, or obsoleted by other documents at any
+ time. It is inappropriate to use Internet- Drafts as reference
+ material or to cite them other than as "work in progress."
+
+ To view the entire list of current Internet-Drafts, please check the
+ "1id-abstracts.txt" listing contained in the Internet-Drafts Shadow
+ Directories on ftp.is.co.za (Africa), ftp.nordu.net (Europe),
+ munnari.oz.au (Pacific Rim), ds.internic.net (US East Coast), or
+ ftp.isi.edu (US West Coast).
+
+ Distribution of this memo is unlimited. Please send comments to the
+ <cat-ietf@mit.edu> mailing list.
+
+Abstract
+
+ This document specifies how the communication should be done between
+ a client and a KDC using Kerberos [RFC1510] with TCP as the transport
+ protocol.
+
+Specification
+
+ This draft specifies an extension to section 8.2.1 of RFC1510.
+
+ A Kerberos server MAY accept requests on TCP port 88 (decimal).
+
+ The data sent from the client to the KDC should consist of 4 bytes
+ containing the length, in network byte order, of the Kerberos
+ request, followed by the request (AS-REQ or TGS-REQ) itself. The
+ reply from the KDC should consist of the length of the reply packet
+ (4 bytes, network byte order) followed by the packet itself (AS-REP,
+ TGS-REP, or KRB-ERROR).

+
+Discussion
+
+ Even though the preferred way of sending kerberos packets is over UDP
+ there are several occasions when it's more practical to use TCP.
+
+ Mainly, it's usually much less cumbersome to get TCP through
+ firewalls than UDP.
+
+ In theory, there's no reason for having explicit length fields, that
+ information is already encoded in the ASN1 encoding of the Kerberos
+ packets. But having explicit lengths makes it unnecessary to have to
+ decode the ASN.1 encoding just to know how much data has to be read.
+
+ Another way of signaling the end of the request of the reply would be
+ to do a half-close after the request and a full-close after the
+ reply. This does not work well with all kinds of firewalls.
+
+Security considerations
+
+ This memo does not introduce any known security considerations in
+ addition to those mentioned in [RFC1510].
